Guest Reviews

• Anelisa (10/5): We enjoyed and we are coming back soon - Location is good and safe Oh I loved everything
• Mandy (8/5): -
• Anelisa (10/5): I really loved the place keep up the good work❤️ - It’s beautiful,clean,quite,safe oh love it❤️🤏🏾
• Sindisiwe (9/5): Overall, the place is really beautiful, it's clean and it's very close to amenities. - My mother was very happy with the service. The place is in a really nice, not too busy location, it's beautiful and I would definitely book there again. I booked on behalf of my mother, I had asked for a 1 p.m check-in, which was granted but the room was still not ready when we arrived way after 1 p.m. We were disappointed as she was tired, coming off a 12-hour bus trip. It was no biggy though as we decided to leave her bags and just go to the nearby Boardwalk Mall.
• Sanele (9/5): -
• Meghan (6/5): Great location , needs some attention to details - Location was great . Close to main shops and beach area . We had no towels on arrival , they were still wet in tumble drier . I had to search and eventually found one old torn towel in a cupboard which we shared . Next day again we only got one clean towel to share . Crockery in both rooms sub standard . Chipped cups and plats . Cheap useless knives .
• Laura (4/5): I am not fussy but was disappointed no towel available - Not applicable Slower not clean. No towel.
• Shaun (7/5): - Location Size of the room Very old needs an update for sure Brocken shower handle TV not working properly only YouTube available lack of electric points Very noisy if other guests are talking
• Kotsana (10/5): - Great staff , Big shout out to Kevin !❤️❤️💃🏽💃🏽
• mngomezulu (10/5): - Neat comfortable,the host way amazing also
• Faith (10/5): -
• David (8/5): One night stand. - Cleanliness, location and secure under cover parking. Bed was comfortable and shower was spacious and clean. Close to the Port Elizabeth beachfront and the Boardwalk shopping mall. Only one electrical powerpoint that we could find in the room. The TV and fridge were plugged in at this outlet. There is a microwave and kettle in the room, but we were at a loss as to where to plug these in. Only discovered this late in the evening after returning from dinner. This did not affect our stay in any way, but could be discouraging to anyone else.
• Matandela (6/5): - Owner was friendly There were no plugs it was difficult to charge phones plugs in the wardrobe not near beds and no privacy in the bathroom and also floor rug in the other room not smelling nice
• ELIZABETH (8/5): - Great location, comfortable bed, fridge and micro in room nice and use of kitchen. Very helpful and friendly host. Room needs a bit of maintenance (toilet roll holder and basin plug missing) Also bedlamps would have been nice.
• Godfrey (10/5): Awesomeness at its best - Clean & quiet N/A
• Mercy (9/5): My stay was excellent and the place is worth the money paid - The host was so friendly and kept checking on us and engaging too Actually I can't fault them on anything
• Khanyisile (7/5): Not bad - I liked how spacious the place was and where it was located. It was close to the mall and the beach which was really great! I didn't like how the place wasn't clean upon arrival but it was totally understandable considering that we checked in earlier. What I really didn't like was how when I requested for pillow case changes due to an unpleasant scent, the helper Amanda wasn't understanding, even requested for a linen spray atleast but she didn't even know what it was. My mother wanted to use the bathtub but couldn't find the stopper during our entire stay, that was also unfortunate. The wifi was connected on the tv in the other room but the tv seemed to not be working. The robes that were apparently supposed to be offered along with towels were not offered. One of the irons were not working and we did have access to a hair dryer when we needed it.
• Thulani (8/5): -
• Patience (8/5): -
• Tsakane (10/5): - They allow kids
• Yedwa (10/5): It was worth the stay and we are considering going back this time without the kids. - The location is great and very peaceful. We made our own meals and we were allowed to use their kitchen which is gorgeous!!! The owner and his wife are wonderful people and made us feel welcome. We even shared a few laughs. It really felt like home away from home. We have no objections at all. We are a hands on bunch so we did alot ourselves and didnt need much or had anything negative to say or experience.
• KOLOMOLA (4/5): - The place is very nice They didn't come to clean the room for us and change the bedding and we had to ask for clean towels in the morning
• Amanda (5/5): - The size of the room and size of the shower was decent The toilet was not clean,the sheets had stains,the iron was not accessible,when I arrive I stood outside,the bell was not working.
• Noluthando (7/5): -

No tea provided. Only creamer provided - no fresh milk.

• Masibulele (6/5): Wonderful stay that is in close proximity to the mall. The area is very quiet too. - The location is perfect and easily accessible. This a a very beautiful establishment. The owner is very hospitable. Nothing but the fact that we had to ask for toilet paper as there was none in the room and the previous guest’s bottle with cigarette buds was left outside. The cleaning could better as we found dust under the bed with some trash.
